- Foliar habit, tolerance to defoliation and their link to carbon and nitrogen storage (2014, background): “…leaf economics strategy of deciduous species, associated with low toughness and high nutrient concentration and specific leaf area (SLA; Mooney & Gulmon 1982; Walters & Reich 1999; Wright et al. 2004), certainly makes leaves more susceptible to herbivory (Chabot & Hicks 1982; Pringle et al. 2011).”
- Leaf phenology is associated with soil water availability and xylem traits in a tropical dry forest (2012, background): “Species in moist sites possessed a range of traits shared in part with species from tropical rainforests, both in the xylem and in the leaves (Pringle et al. 2011; Méndez- Alonzo et al. 2012).”
